Humid but if you got to get stuff done today is not a bad day to do it because tomorrow karen is going to be soupier. Lets talk about septa Regional Rails where we expect major delays once again today. Last week we were 13,000 seats short after they took a third of the rail cars out of service. Now theyve leased some and were about 11,000 seats short so its getting a little bit better for some of you but you want to expect major delays. Watch for this with Regional Rails. We expect them to begin after about 7 oclock. Yesterday we had problems where some trains got full and just bypassed, these kind of became express trains and we expect Something Like that could happen again today. Pack a lot of patience and make sure to grab that new schedule with septa Regional Rail that went into effect yesterday. Lets hitd roast. Weve got this accident on the schuylkill westbound involving an overturned truck. Theyve cleared the truck. This is westbound Near University. Now we can see both lanes ha

It was a Fourth of July spectacle in Boston in 1948: the final game of a three-game set between the Red Sox and Connie Mack’s Philadelphia Athletics, the latter just a half-game behind Cleveland in the American League race. The Red Sox had failed to muster much of any offense against the A’s in the previous two games, losing by scores of 4-2 and 8-2. This final contest, though, was proving more competitive. A’s starter Carl Scheib held the Red Sox to just a run through the first four innings; the Red Sox’s Ellis Kinder held the A’s scoreless. The Red Sox added another run in the fifth; the A’s answered by taking a one-run lead in the top of the sixth. The Red Sox got three more runs back in the bottom of the inning, giving them the lead once again, and knocking Scheib out of the game. The A’s tied it up again in the top of the seventh. For a brief, peaceful moment, the score was a calm, reasonable 5-5.
